Mr. Knickerbocker, if you please, my dear; damme! I'm so happy I could fly to the moon, jump over a steeple, dance a new fandango on stilts. [Dances.] Fal, lal, la.
Enter Herman.
Knickerbocker.
Well, sir, what the devil do you want?
Herman.
I came to claim this lady's fortune or her hand.
Alice.
Knock him down, spouse.
Knickerbocker.
Mr. Knickerbocker, my dear.
